The working class must unite against oppression from "summary" of Animal Farm by George Orwell by George Orwell
The animals on Manor Farm had long suffered under the oppressive rule of Mr. Jones. They toiled day in and day out, never receiving fair treatment or reward for their hard work. Each animal knew deep down that they deserved better, that they deserved to be treated with respect and dignity. It was not until Old Major delivered his stirring speech, rousing the animals to revolution, that they began to see a glimmer of hope. They realized that they were not alone in their suffering, that they all shared a common enemy in the form of human oppression. It was this realization that sparked a fire within them, driving them to unite against their oppressors. As the animals banded together to overthrow Mr. Jones and establish Animal Farm, they discovered the power that came from solidarity. They found strength in their numbers, in their shared purpose and determination to create a better life for themselves. They understood that only by standing together could they hope to break free from the chains of oppression that had bound them for so long. However, as time passed and the pigs began to consolidate their power, cracks began to form in the unity of the working class. The pigs, led by Napoleon, started to exploit their fellow animals, betraying the principles of equality and justice that had driven the revolution. Slowly but surely, the working class found themselves once again oppressed, this time by their own kind. It was a harsh lesson for the animals of Animal Farm, a reminder that unity alone was not enough to ensure freedom and equality. They had to remain vigilant, to always question authority and hold their leaders accountable for their actions. Only by staying united in the face of oppression, by standing up for each other and fighting together for a common cause, could they hope to truly achieve the justice and fairness they so desperately sought.
